Shades Of

In candlelit crystal,
she cries a rainbow of brilliant colors,
setting them free.

An irridescent veil
comes over her,
as shapes gather to touch edges.

Eyes unaware,
she reaches for the heart
etching it with words unspoken.

In this soft glow
she lip paints memories created
under last evenings diamond light...

and steals your gray away.

In the shadows, playing
are the memories of a lasting touch
the first time lips tasted lips.

Waiting, once again
are the hues of her rainbow
to shower you in colors true.

The gray shall disappear
as the early morning fog lifts
to the warmth of a new shine...

painting over your shades of gray.
